Tesla cuts number of stock colors to streamline production

The stock's gain follows a letter from Tesla CEO Elon Musk to employees over the weekend that said the company was ready to report its best quarter ever.

"I think quality has to be their top priority", he said. "He would be on a Webex call, he'd be working on these detailed spreadsheets, he'd be sending emails, and it would all be extremely precise".

Guillen previously headed up Tesla's truck program and worldwide sales and service. "The spreadsheets would become data that he would pass up to Elon every night", Joseph said. Crystal Guardado, a single mother, worked at Tesla's Fremont, California, factory for four months. At Daimler, he led their most successful semi truck program ever.
